In undulating pasture, near the S shore of Kenmare Bay; the ground to the W and NW is marshy. A semicircular area (28m ENE-WSW) defined by a scarp (Wth c. 1.5m; H c. 0.6m) SSE-NNW and by a linear drystone field boundary on the straight ENE side (L 50m). The base of the scarp is eroded W-NW and there is a slight indent (Wth 0.5m) at SW. The interior slopes gently down to the WSW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).

- KE101-007001: Stone circle - multiple-stone, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKE101-007001-. In the garden of a house, to the N of the Kenmare-Castletownbere road and c. 9.5km SW of Kenmare. In 1841 this stone circle was described as 'a circle of standing stones with a small cromlech [KE101-007002-] in the centre. The circle is thirty-five feet, six inches [10.82m] in diameter and composed of twelve standing stones, each being from four feet to five feet ten inches [1.21m-1.77m] in height, three feet [0.91m] wide and two feet [0.6m] thick' (OSL, 176). According to Ó Nualláin (1984a, 28, no. 44), the stone circle was in a ruinous condition for many years and was reconstructed c. 1964 and most likely now bears little resemblance to its original form. It now consists of a U-shaped arrangement of loosely set upright stones with a possible boulder-burial (KE101-007002-) in the centre.

In the garden of a house, to the N of the Kenmare-Castletownbere road and c. 9.5km SW of Kenmare. The monument stood in the centre of a multiple-stone circle (KE101-007001-). In 1841 it was described as a 'Cromlech…which extends East and West and inclines considerably to the East. The top flag is supported by three small stones not more than three feet [0.91m] in height; it measures six feet [1.82m] from East to West, five feet [1.52m] from North to South and is one foot, three inches [0.38m] in thickness' (OSL, 176). All that now remains of this possible boulder-burial is a flat slab (max. dim. 1.8m). (Ó Nualláin 1978, 98-9, no. 40). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Kerry. Volume I: South-West Kerry' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
